Across the Plains in Trains and Automobiles

Guest: Doc Hubbard (Episode 1)

The debut episode of this podcast features a fun and freewheeling interview with Dr. Jeff "Doc" Hubbard, a retired educator and administrator from Southern California. To celebrate his 65th birthday and 20th year of sobriety, Doc took a train ride from California to fulfill his lifelong dream of visiting the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, New York. The 10,000-mile rail and road trip included stops in Chicago for a deep-dish pizza, an unexpectedly harrowing taxi ride, and soul-stirring visits to Memphis and Delta Blues museums.

This episode is supported by a subtle soundtrack that honors Hubbard's spiritual connection with Western culture and music.

Pull up a seat, get comfortable, and come along for the ride.
